DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 From earliest times, humans have wondered about the sky above them. Simple telescopes in the 1600s made possible descriptions of the wonders of Earth''s Moon and the closer planets.

In this book, we''ll explore seven wonders of these four enormous planets—called the gas giants—and their moons. On Saturn, we''ll examine its amazing rings and their properties. On Jupiter, we’ll investigate the Great Red Spot—a gigantic storm about twice the size of Earth that has lasted for centuries. We’ll also explore a moon of Jupiter with erupting volcanoes, a moon of Uranus covered with one of the weirdest landscapes in the solar system, a huge crater on a tiny moon of Saturn, as well as planet auroras much more spectacular than Earth''s northern lights. We''ll also consider how the discovery of water on Jupiter''s moon Europa may mean that life is possible in other worlds.

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 From earliest times, humans have wondered about the sky above them and have studied all visible objects. People began to identify differences between stars and planets, and as technology advanced with telescopes and space probes, they sought deeper understanding of the millions of bits of debris rocketing through the solar system. Scientists determined that most of these objects are left over from the creation of the planets and their moons. They classified these leftovers into categories such as asteroids, comets, and meteors.In this book, we''ll explore seven wonders of asteroids, comets, and meteors. Ceres is a huge mountain-sized asteroid that orbits with other asteroids between Mars and Jupiter. Other marvels include Ganymede, the largest asteroid in the group called Earthgrazers or Near-Earth Objects, and Halley''s comet, a ball of ice, that passes Earth every seventy-five or so years.We''ll also explore the amazing impact that space debris can have on planets and moons. The Borealis Basin, a wondrous crater more than 5,000 miles across, formed when an asteroid collided with Mars in the ancient past.Then we will travel to the far-off Kuiper belt, where as many as 200 million icy bodies orbit, and wonder at the mystery of planetlike objects, such as Pluto and Charon. Finally, we’ll can experience a space wonder firsthand by standing outside on a night in August to watch the spectacular Perseid meteor shower fill the sky.

 From earliest times, humans have wondered about the sky above them. People looked at distant stars and wondered what they were made of. They wondered whether any other places in the universe were like Earth. At first people used simple telescopes to study the solar system—the Sun and all the planets that circle around it. Later, more powerful telescopes and high-tech machines allowed people to investigate worlds outside the solar system. In this book, we''ll explore seven wonders beyond the solar system. We''ll look at giant clouds of gas and dust called nebulae. Some nebulae are places where stars are born. Other nebulae are all that remains of stars that have died. Other wonders beyond the solar system include pulsing stars, giant stars, and giant clusters of stars called galaxies. We''ll visit them all. And we''ll explore the age-old question: Does the universe have any other planets like Earth? We''ll learn about scientists who hunt for Earthlike planets and the tools they use. Finally, we''ll look at the big picture—the universe itself. This vast network of stars, planets, and other objects is the biggest wonder of them all.
